T SELLING SCENERY IN AMERICA
Three live railroads, with, a system extending from
Chicago to the Pacific Coast, decided the way to get
business was to go after it .
The business they, wanted was summer travel to. the
Northwest. Their principal means of soliciting this bus
iness was to tell the public what they had to offer along
their lines, in scenery, climate and opportunity. They
have been at.it for three years, now the Burlington,
Great Northern and Northern Pacific and have checked
their results by means of a very definite process of learn
ing the number of visitors to each of the five National
, jif - 1 -7-. 11 i- 1 : .... Tl.Ti.
jrarKs on meir mam line leuuvvst-une, unainei, mi
Rainier. Craler Lake and Rockv'Mountain.
In two years the visitors to Crater Lake and Mt. Rain
ier increased approximately 100 per cent; Yellowstone
and Glacieiy-50 per cent. - And this in spite of the fact
that 1924 was an off year for travel.
Apparently the' East, is becoming interested in the
West, and the Far West, at that.
Travel experts have always said that the American
school teachers, on account of their long' summer holi
day and their appreciation of the educational value of
travel, were the one. great tourist source for the western
mountain country., This railroad group's study shows
that the first place in reality belongs to an altogether
different class the business executive group, including
department ;heads officials of business firms, and ma-
. jor salesmen. ; Iwenty-five per cent of all of the eastern
visitors to these National Parks come from that classifi
cation..', The' teacher group is second ; clerical "workers
third' professional men-doctors,' lawyers and dentists
rfnurth. And then come housewives mother off for
recuperation. Following, in. order, come skilled workers
mechanics, engineers,, foremen ana : men stuaenis,
farmers, and "retired." ; :

WASHINGTON, July . 14. What
may -this country texeect 'ln the way
of tax changes In the next few
years? :-
It can feel perfectly sure- of a
lot of talk about reduction, and
almost equally - sure of higher
taxes. '
Federal . taxes' are coming down.
There's no bluff about that. State,
county and city taxes are increas
ing steadily.
; The former are not being cut
and cannot be cut and nobody has
a right to ask that they be cut as
fast as the latter are rising.
What does it profit the' tax
payer to have a few per cent
lopped off his federal burden if
twice that many per cent are added
onto his local burden?
.
Income taxes almost certainly
will be trimmed by another ,25
per cent next winter. This doesn't
necessarily mean, however, that the
man of .moderate Income will 1 be
relieved another 25 per cent, on
top of his Inst year's relief.
Secretary of the Treasury ? Mel
lon is determined to give a large
share of tho benefit this time to
sur-taxpayers a little of it to the
smaller fry, but most of it to the
big fish.
How this will come out nobody
knows yet. , There'll be a per
capita decrease, but some millions
of peoplo may not como In on the
per capita. Next December will '
tell, most likely.
: i- '. .
There'll be further decreases
after ' next winter, scattered along
over jfeverul years, but they'll be
more 'gradual, ' except in certain
contingencies. .
Luxury taxes as on automobiles
and auto supplies, jewelry and
theater tickets will dwindle, bit
by bit, . to nothing. Income tax
exemptions will bo Increased, slowly-
1 t It'B rather a wild guess which
Is tlio best anybody can make
but perhaps the federal load will
bo lightened, in ,the absence of. any
of the codtlhgencles referred . to,
by 30 per cent, all 'round, in the
course of six or seven years.
United States has about 12
billions in debts outstanding in
Europe and is getting nothing,
principle or interest, . on : approxi
mately eight billions of it.
' If this matter's fixed up, and the
debtors begin turning in the in
terest and making a few : inroads
on the principle, it will help ma
terially.
Then there's America's own war
indebtedness, almost entirely In
ternal but it has to be paid, for
all that.
Its principal has been reduce!
since 1919 from about 26 to about
20 Vi billions. This saves interest.
As it continues still less interest.
'
Now, as to state, county and city
taxes, which offset these federal
reductions. Local levies, from state
on down, wero $13.91 per capita
the country over In 1912, which
was an increase of more than 60
per cent in 10 years, "and in 1922
the per capita was $32.23, or an
increase of nearly 132 per cent In
two decades.
The states, counties and cities
weren't paying their bills as they
went along, either. Their indebt
ednesses, per capita, were $22.73
in 19902 and In 1922 $79.90, near
ly a 23S per cent increase.
